Miss Independence vs Miss MILF

Woohoo! Summer is here and school is finally over! OK, I have had ENOUGH of books for this semester, but I don't mind doing extra patient cares if I have the chance.

Summer is the celebration of love, peace and harmony! Celebration of Choung's birthday (May 23rd), and also my struggle through the first semester of nursing school. Most of all, summer is all about MUSIC! We're going to see Cindy Lauper and Erasure for True Colors Tour in Vegas next week. Then, we'll be seeing the Police before Brian leaves for China. More amazingly, two of my all time favorite artists, Bjork and Tori Amos, just came out with two awesome albums.

Bjork totally blew me away in her last concert in Coachealla. She came out with this amazing colorful costume and cute hat, singing Earth Intruders (1st single in Volta) for her first song. Then, when she did Hunter, I almost died. A lot of the songs she did are mostly from Homogenic album, including Pluto! She also sang Pagan Poetry, which was fantastic. Her encore was Declare Independence, and if you haven't heard of that one yet, you gotta listen to it. It's fucking amazing.


American Doll Posse is Tori's 6th albums, which I personally think she could've done better. But I'm not complaining since I didn't fancy her last album, the Beekeeper. A lot of interesting political views in this album, including the first track Yo George. That song is about how George Bush fucked up America. I didn't really find any mind blowing songs that she used to make, but I personally like Father's Son, Teenage Hustling and Velvet Revolution. I love the cover of the album, which is very similiar to Strange Little Girls, with darker side of it. The "posse" consists of Amos in a number of guises - Santa, Clyde, Isabel, Tori, and Pip.
